Conservation Officer Lets Tourism Growth Drive Statewide
Joe Ulrich, one of seven Nebraska game conservation officers, advocates stronger tourism promotion in the Panhandle. He notes Bridgeport relies on the Bridgeport State Lakes Recreation Area, used by up to 15,000 annually, with 13 out of state campers per night in season. Ulrich urges better signs and facilities to draw more visitors and revenue for Bridgeport and surrounding communities.
